Hamilton Princess & Beach Club today [March 13] announces that Chef Marcus Samuelsson will be hosting a dinner on Wednesday, March 15 to promote his new cookbook.

The celebrity chef will be cooking some of his favourite dishes from his latest cook book ‘The Red Rooster Cookbook: The Story of Food and Hustle in Harlem’ at Marcus’ before taking the time to meet and greet fans.

Marcus Samuelsson said: “I’m looking forward to visiting Bermuda and cooking the food I love for old and new friends. Everything on the menu is featured in my latest cookbook. I want to show people that eating is about so much more than what is on your plate. I love to create a vibrant dining experience where everyone is having a good time.”

His latest cookbook looks beyond food and celebrates the neighbourhood. It has playlists for chapters and features stories of the Harlem community alongside the recipes.

Allan Federer, General Manager at Hamilton Princess & Beach Club, said: “We are very much looking forward to welcoming Marcus back to Bermuda and we know guests won’t be disappointed when he cooks with the recipes hand-picked from his new cook book.”

Welcome cocktails at Marcus’ dinner will include Yes Chef, The Brownstoner, The Savoy and the Dark and Stormier.

The set menu will be Squash Salad with Crunch Quinoa, Coconut Ceviche, Obama Short Rib with Mac and Greens and Fried Brussel Sprouts With Bacon Dip, followed by Rum Cake.

Cocktails are at 7pm, with the four-course dinner starting at 8pm. Tickets cost $85 plus gratuities per person – they are limited and available on a first come, first served basis. They are available to buy at www.ptix.bm

Marcus’ re-opened its doors on March 9 with a fresh new look and menu. The popular restaurant underwent a refresh in February to remove the wall behind the bar and open up the restaurant’s already spectacular views even more.
